đŸ About Hazed Doggie Productions
Built by C.V. Wood. Backed by sweat, scars, and second chances.
I didnât start Hazed Doggie Productions because it sounded cool.
I started it because nobody else was going to do it for us.
Back in 2003, Austin was crawling with talent and starving for infrastructure. Hazed Doggie was born out of that tensionâa serious, boots-on-the-ground effort to support the underground. We werenât just playingâwe were packing dive bars to the fire code, building real followings, chasing label attentionâand still getting passed over.
We built the community we needed:
freakOphonics, Schlong Daddy, Murph, Daveâs Not Here, Mobile Homies, Alligator Dave, Dirty Wormz, Megatron Bomb Squad, Christopher Flores, Tee-Jay Hill, Roger Dunn, Rob & Pat Dew.
Bands, MCs, engineers, and every soul who helped haul gear, hold cameras, hang flyers, or just showed up to move the crowdâwe carried each other.
We cut our teeth at Trophyâs, Rockstarâs, Red Eyed Fly, The Vibeâevery club in this one-horse town that would hand us a stage and a shot.
And we didnât just show upâwe stomped ass. Every time.
We booked our own gigs. We ran our own sound. We burned CDs one by one. We filmed on borrowed cameras and pressed merch by hand. This wasnât brandingâit was survival. And we did it together.
Years passed. Bands broke up. Some fell off, some moved on.
But some of us never left the fight.
Hazed Doggie Productions lives again. Not as a memory, but as a full-service, mobile label with teethâready to help the next wave of working musicians build something that lasts. We record live. We shoot multi-cam. We mix, master, design, and press. We build brands, cut vinyl, and help artists get their story into the hands that matter.
But more than anythingâwe donât forget where we came from.
This is for the road dogs. For the worn-out gear, the DIY flyers, the hundred-dollar guarantees split six ways. For every artist still in it, still hungry, and still honest.
If youâre one of the real onesâthen you already know:
The rules were made to be broken.
Itâs time to snatch the steak off the table without fear of consequence.
As they sayâif you canât hang with the big dogs, get off the porch.
